Let's remember Paolo and his countrymen are free today to spout their crap because a lot of American GI's died ridding them of the Facists and Nazi's. Maybe that's one we shouldn't have fought. Notice Paolo's response to what he would do if Italy was attacked like we were on 9-11. Kill'em all.... now that's an idea ;-)

Like I said before Paolo and as Marshall stated above. If it wasnt for America and it's Government and Military you and yours would be speaking German. Plain and simple

I can't believe I have nothing to add. Paolo knows that we do while his EU friends just talk. While he yells about other tyrants we have yet to unseat, the EU profits from those same tyrants. I do not see the EU out there trying to unseat them. Heck the EU does not even support our embargo of Cuba.

Strange how easily are forgotten the russians, the french, brits, polish, australians, new zealanders, indians, belgians, dutchs etc... etc... etc...
We owe our freedom to ourselves. Italians fought for it as well as americans and the others.
Now what that does mean? you help a friend, then you ask him to follow you in doing bad things. Shall the friend follow you anyway?

Most of the counties you listed had already been defeated my the Axis powers. If it weren't for the US troops and Lend-Lease programs you would be German today! You can try and practise revisionist history but it won't work here! The tons of materials and supplies along with thousands of US dead paid for your freedom! Even after that, it was US dollars that rebuilt Europe. Don't you ever forget that! Most of the countries involved never even had the courtsey to repay that debt. Yes we destroyed Saddam I am damn proud of it. As in the aftermath of WWII we have started rebuilding Iraq as well. We don't need or want your gratitude, just stay the hell out of our way!

It cracks me up that he left out Osama Bin Laden. Could it be because he feels sorry for him?

This whole thread is amazing to me. I'm not really a political creature and I try to see both sides of every argument. So I can understand why some people in this country are for the war in Iraq and some are against it. That's the beauty of America-you can express an unpopular opinion and not be frightened that some storm trooper is going to take you away in the middle of the night.

My late father fought in Italy during World War II. Many of his fellow soldiers lost their lives during that time. Whenever he told me about his war experiences, he always mentioned the warm, loving Italian people and how he was proud to have helped them during the war. It seems to me that the Italians and the French and people all over the world have always turned to the United States when they need help. And, you know, we've always been there to give it.

PaolofromRome, I remember you from the other board. I always looked forward to your posts. As I recall, you predicted our hurricances by the bubbles rising from your pasta (if this is a different Paolo, I apologize.) Whoever you are, it hurts me to see how quickly you and your countrymen have forgotten the fine job my father and his friends did for you. You have forgotten all of the times my country has come to the aid of smaller or weaker nations.

When your country is in need again, to whom will you turn? France? India? Tell me. I'm curious. When your country needs money, who will you ask? Saudi Arabia? Iran? Japan?

You know what Paolo? I'll bet that if your country needs help soon or in the future, your leaders will look to Washington.Only this time it might be a tad different. America isn't asking anyone to "follow us into something bad" as you put it. I'm sorry you don't see it that way. Frankly with all the anti-American sentiment in your country, it would make ME think twice about offering aid again. That's just me. We'll see what the people in power who make the decisions think. The President, The Congress and so on.

You hate Americans now? Fine. Try living without our tourism dollars. We can live without Italian leather and other Italian imports if we need to. No problem.

Wait! Let's call a truce Paolo. How about you hold up on that anger and hostility and scorn you are spewing. It doesn't suit you. Your friends here at Storm2K aren't deserving of it. And really, neither is the good old USA.
Just my 2 cents.
